Ethereum Network celebrates its 10th anniversary on July 30th, marking its 10th anniversary since the launch of the Genesis block. The Ethereum Foundation is at the forefront of a global dispersed campaign to recognize this milestone. The campaign includes online and in-person events to reflect Ethereum’s progress and impact on blockchain development.
Community-led events and global participation
Celebrations are being held in major cities such as Shenzhen and Hong Kong, alongside numerous meetups organized by communities around the world. The Ethereum Foundation supports these efforts through its Ecosystem Support Program, offering up to $500 micro grants to fund grassroots activities.

These events highlight the evolution of Ethereum in areas such as decentralized finance (DEFI), tokenization, and digital ownership, and aim to further strengthen community ties across different regions.
Live streams and chain engagement
Important features of the anniversary include the livestream event at 2:30 UTC on July 30th, with a special moment at 3:26:13 PM, and an exact timestamp of the launch of Ethereum’s Genesis Block. Participants will be able to make a free “Torch NFT” 24 hours after the event.
The livestream also features panels, reflections from core contributors, and interactive sessions highlighting Ethereum’s journey and future goals.
Involvement from Ethereum Founders and Ecosystem Partners
Ethereum co-founders such as Vitalik Buterin, Joe Lubin and Mihai Alisie will be taking part in the event along with the foundation’s executive director Aya Miyaguchi. Their involvement provides insight into the context of Ethereum’s past and future roadmap.
Projects such as the Protocol Guild and the Shutter Network contribute to the Ethereum Time Capsule, an initiative designed to document important historical moments and predict the next chapter of Ethereum.
Expected network impacts and institutional perceptions
The campaign focuses on community engagement rather than regulatory announcements, but is expected to promote a temporary increase in network activity. Previous Ethereum milestones have led to the growth of NFT transactions, adoption of Layer 2, and use of definitions.
